Arts and culture are vital elements of city life as they engage, challenge and surprise people and help us reflect on our unique cultural identity. Through direct investment in these activities, the City of Perth creates opportunities throughout the year for community interaction and enjoyment, resulting in Perth being a vibrant, iconic destination to live, work, study and visit.
Through Arts and Culture Sponsorship, the City supports projects that represent a broad range of high-quality arts activity and creative cultural practice which assist the City in achieving its broader strategic aims.
Arts and Culture Sponsorship is accessible to a wide range of organisations that identify the arts as their primary purpose, feature a public outcome, and provide opportunities for creative participation in the public domain.
